3 Jacquet s Ghost It should be possible for a musician of the twentieth century to retain the spirit of this earlier music. Idiom does not matter [...] by the simple game of musical spelling one should be able to pass imperceptibly from one to the other [...] These remarks of Jehan Alain, written in an autograph source of the Variations sur un thème de Clément Jannequin, are far from a manifesto: there are few composers for the instrument less likely to wield such a blunt instrument. But their fundamental message that old and modern idioms can be close, not distant, relations is one explored by all the music in this programme. The catalyst for Alain s work is a sixteenthcentury chanson, L espoir que j ay d acquerir vostre grâce, erroneously attributed to Clément Jannequin by the anthologist Jean-Baptiste Weckerlin, who was also responsible for numerous editorial modifications to the original chanson. Alain adheres closely to Weckerlin s altered version of the theme, but the second variation, curiously entitled Maggiore it is anything but sees the process of alteration begin; the theme is re-stated a perfect fifth higher, and intervals become more complex over a less simply The Metzler organ of Trinity College, Cambridge (1975) functional bass line. The extended fugato that follows takes this process of complication further, interleaving a secondary idea of increasing angularity and chromatic intensity between the fugal treatments of the theme and moving rapidly through a series of keys. The concluding Grave follows a similar process in microcosm, re-emphasising the tonal centres of the home key before recapitulating fragments of the theme in triple, rather than duple time. Alain (whose performance markings here, as in other works, are often contradictory and inconsistent) specifies throughout the work the use of sonorities typical of the French Classical school, a preoccupation with tone colour which links the Variations to the work of Hugo Distler. The more general aesthetic resemblances between Distler and Alain have sometimes been overstated; indeed, one study by François Sabatier suggests that they share little common ground beyond an interest in early music and in writing for organ and voice. Distler, inspired by the range of sonorities available on the historic Stellwagen instrument of the Jakobikirche in Lübeck where he was organist, drew heavily on the influence of Buxtehude and the North German Baroque idiom. Deploring the cosmopolitan cultural influences so enthusiastically embraced by Alain, and eschewing the Romantic symphonic tradition, he left an oeuvre notable for its
4 intellectual rigour, firmly rooted in the procedures and preoccupations of an earlier generation of German composers and characterised by intensive use of motivic and figurative development. The Partita und Satz Jesus Christus unser Heiland, der von uns den Gotteszorn wandt displays these aspects of Distler s aesthetic clearly; more an extended fantasia than a simple set of variations, it consists of a contrapuntal chorale setting, bicinium (two part invention) and intricately worked ricercare. Appended to the whole is a virtuosic peroration owing much to models from the seventeenth century. The figural devices of the German Baroque also constitute an important element in William Albright s Chorale Partita in an Old Style. It is an early work, but the composer drew on the musical procedures of the period elsewhere in his organ music; the Basse de Trompette in Organ Book III, for example, is inspired by the forms, if not the musical language, of the French Classical school of organ composition. Unlike that work, this partita, based on the chorale Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten (a melody familiar from its inclusion in J.S.Bach s Schübler chorales) is a sustained homage to earlier models, not only in terms of formal design, but also in aspects of rhythmic figuration, scoring, and registration. In his maturity Albright viewed this work as something of a manifesto; it was published at a time when, in his own words, more and more composers [were] rejecting the necessity of a linear progression of musical language. In keeping with Albright s stated intention of recapturing a past idiom, the music is characterised by both a sense of austerity and notable motivic integrity. Albright s choice of the same tonality as Bach s setting of the chorale, C minor, may be construed as a further layer of allusion to earlier models. The characteristic dactyl rhythms of the Bach work are not used, but the texture and figuration of his final variation are closely related to the final variation of Bach s partita on Sei gegrüsset, Jesu gütig, BWV 76. Alexandre Boëly s Messe Solennelle does not explore earlier idioms by means of allusion; instead, it offers a fresh perspective on them by juxtaposing them in an unaccustomed, indeed unintended, context. The Messe, from which the Kyrie is performed here, adheres to the alternatim principle, a liturgical practice widespread in seventeenth and eightennth century France in which organ interludes (often improvised) alternated with sung plainsong. Notable publications in this form included those of Nicolas de Grigny and François Couperin, whose two alternatim settings of the Mass Boëly himself copied out. Boëly organist of St Germain l Auxerrois in Paris was an admirer of earlier music at a
5 time when it was wildly unfashionable to be so, and incorporates his own transcriptions of works by J.S. Bach, Johann Kirnberger, François Couperin and G.F. Handel into his compilation. His own brief contributions are of characteristic contrapuntal fluency and harmonic charm, even if the works by Bach and Handel seem, to modern sensibilities, curious choices for the penitential liturgical context. In the process of compiling this unique collection, Boëly offers an idiosyncratic nineteenth century perspective on older practice, which one commentator has happily characterised as a gallery [...] filled with ghosts. The ghost of the French Classical school so greatly admired by Boëly, and more specifically its highly stylised musical gestures, are also a driving force in Judith Bingham s new work, Jacquet s Ghost. The inspiration for the piece is that most elusive of keyboard forms, the harpsichord prelude non mesuré (a genre to which, incidentally, Jehan Alain referred in remarks about the Variations sur un thème de Clément Jannequin). In préludes of this type, the player assumes a doubly creative role; while the composer indicates approximate note durations and groupings by means of slurs, many more precise details of rhythm and phrase structure are left to the judgement of the performer. Judith Bingham extends this tradition by realising in expansive manner the original prélude (from the Premiere Suite by Elisabeth Claude Jacquet de la Guerre). The seventeenth century original is treated as a both a harmonic resource and a repertory of melodic fragments whose response to subtle chromatic inflection the game of musical spelling, again results in a composition which is rich in allusion to a range of contemporary keyboard practices. The titles of the movements Tombeau, Labyrinthe, Pastorelle somnambule and Envoi draw on numerous stimuli, some simply pictorial (the grotesquerie of the buffo passages in Labyrinthe ), others more subtly allusive (including moments of self-quotation). The form of the original work albeit greatly expanded is adopted as a structural template, a strategy which gives the work a satisfying sense of formal proportion. Bingham s work is both a homage to earlier compositional practice and an exploration of the unique tonal qualities of the Metzler organ in Trinity College; Bernard Foucroulle s Spiegel offers a further example of a composer s response to such stimuli in a work which also makes extensive use of the fragmentation and inflection of pre-existing thematic material. A double tribute to the medieval organist and theorist Arnolt von Schlick (whose treatise Spiegel der Orgelmeister und Orgelmachen provides
6 the title of the piece) and to the remarkable 1511 van Covelens organ of the Laurenskerk in Alkmaar, Foucroulle s work, a set of variations on the plainsong Salve Regina, opposes contemporary musical language of notable rhythmic complexity with the performance possibilities (or limitations?) of early instruments. The work develops (in a highly stylised manner) several aspects of medieval compositional procedure, but also alludes more explicitly to two works by Schlick; his own versets on the Salve Regina and his 10-voice setting of Ascendo ad Patrem to which Foucroulle pays tribute in a final, rhythmically intricate, verset. Jon Laukvik s Monodie expands the sphere of influence of earlier music from form and sound into the specifics of playing technique. A set of variations based on a technical exercise from Charles Tournemire s organ primer, it draws on the technical practices and preoccupations of both the Romantic and Baroque periods. The grand legato of the French Romantic tradition, exemplified in the Tournemire exercise on which the work is based, is juxtaposed with the articulation practice of the Baroque, the whole coloured by harmonic and metrical devices drawn from jazz. As a performer, Lionel Rogg has been particularly closely associated with the organ Stephen Farr music of J.S. Bach, and the Ricercare Cromatico from the Omaggio a Frescobaldi occupies itself, perhaps unsurprisingly, with intricate contrapuntal matters. Treating a chromatic theme reminiscent of Ligeti s homage to the Italian composer, it employs stretto, augmentation and diminution, and inversion to generate increasing rhythmic tension. The lack of clear tonal centres inherent in the theme is finally resolved over a sustained pedal. Huw Watkins Piece d Orgue does not make specific reference to earlier models of composition, but in its abstract nature, entirely free from programmatic considerations, and its meticulous development of motivic material, it refers back to the large-scale free forms of the Baroque and their particular compositional preoccupations. Its thematic material divides in to clear blocks; the opening figure of descending chords in a lilting rhythm is soon interrupted by two fortissimo seven-note chords. The music proceeds by juxtaposing these two different types of chordal material before a contrasting contrapuntal section in three parts a slowly unfolding melody in the right hand, a repeated descending figure in the left hand and longer notes in the pedals. Subsequent development of the opening chordal ideas makes use of extreme dynamic before a second statement of the contrapuntal section. 01 Stephen Farr
